2 HAMILTON SPECTATOR Thursday July 19 2018 www.spec.com.au Region lashed by strong winds HAMILTON was not left unscathed when wild weather lashed the state on Tuesday. Winds peaked at around 1.30pm when gusts of 85km/h brought down a tree on the old St Mary’s Primary School site on Stephen Street. An eyewitness to the tree falling said it only just missed a passing postman who was 150 metres down the road when the tree fell. SES attended the incident, removing the fallen debris from the road and footpath. Photo: BILLY EASSON. TUESDAY’S severe winds also impacted the setup for Sheepvention, when a marquee roof collapsed, causing mayhem for those preparing for the August event.

The Spectator has received a number of complaints about the newly constructed raised walkways after people, including an on-duty district nurse, have slipped in the winter weather. SGSC director infrastructure, David Moloney, said the shire was aware of the safety issues surrounding the new crossings. “Council are aware of the safety issues surrounding the new pedestrian crossings at both Brown St and Tyers St,” he said. “We thank the community for their feedback, understand and acknowledge their concern and assure them the issues raised around the crossings will be addressed and rectified. “We are currently investigating possible solutions and hope to undertake remedial works in the coming weeks. “Council will inform the community on works planned, once a decision is made.” SAFETY concerns have been raised after a number of people have slipped on the newly constructed pedestrian crossings on Hamilton’s Brown and Tyers Streets.
